The 27th episode of the NHK Asadora drama "Anpan " (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00 a.m. and others), starring Mio Imada , was broadcast on May 6th, in which Ranko ( Yuumi Kawai) receives a draft notice for her crush Gou (Kanata Hosoda). Ranko's reaction to that scene drew the attention of viewers.
In episode 27, one day, Gou receives a conscription notice and reports to Kamaji (played by Kotaro Yoshida) and others, "I've been accepted. I can serve like everyone else." Kamaji and others hide their shock and congratulate Gou.
Just then, Ranko (Yuumi Kawai) comes home from work. When she sees Go holding the red paper, her expression stiffens for a moment, but she senses the mood and manages to say, "Congratulations!"
Nobu (Imada), who has returned home from the dormitory, asks Ranko, "You said the other day that you had a crush on someone. Isn't that Go-chan?" Ranko initially denies it, saying, "What are you talking about?" but then replies, "Even if that's true, there's nothing I can do about it."
Nobu said to Ranko, "That's not true. I think you should tell her properly." "If Gou-chan knew how Ranko felt, he might come back no matter what. He's a kind person, and he'll try his best to survive so that Ranko doesn't feel sad." "You want her to come back, don't you?" Ranko nodded slightly, her eyes tearing up.
In response to this heartbreaking turn of events, social media was flooded with worried comments such as, "I hope he can convey his feelings clearly," and "I just hope Go-chan comes back safely."
